WASHINGTON, Nov. 8, (UP) All pha-es of the repeal situation coveted in a voluminous report from five agencies will lie dis'ii.-sed Iry President Rot sevelt and experts eithei tonvjr.uw or F'rUay, the White House said today. (Copyright, 11133, United Press) Repeal of the 18th amendment uid conclusion of 13 year of prohibition in America, were uccomplishe I facts today, despite unexpected defeat of the rejieal cau.-e in North and S nth

Carolina.

The 34th and 35th tales ratifying the 21st (repeal) anieiidment, were ] assured by wet votes in Pennsylvania j and Ohio. Utah was the 36th. Hut the anti-repealists had made a sensational eleventh hour stand, and the dry triumphs in the Carolinas broke a previously uninterrupted swing of 33 states to the wet column. Utah, one of the six states voting yesterday, showed a lead for the repeal cause of 11,412 on the basis of United Pro- returns from 27 of 20 counties. It was 'possible that the lead would be overcome, but persons familial with the state’s political complexion legar.ied it as highly im-

probable.

Pennsylvania and Ohio approved repeal by wide margins. Kentucky ’s vote will bo counted today under a state law requiring the count the day following the election. Forecasts were for a wet victory. Utah's vote concluded a treincndou revolution in -entiment, unpiocedented . t :t, vopefUid brevity. The repeal amendment was aubmited to the states le-- than a year age Last April .! Michigan became th" first tatc to approve ratification. Seven months and four days later I Utah became th, 36th ! Thus, in less than a year the Iwne dry cause, which dominated Hie nation for more than a decade, was eliminated a- a mill mil is.-ue and robbed of all hut regional and local significance. Two years, ago, and even a year ago, expert American politician- had predicted that prohibition roid I tmt he repealed for another

10 years.

Not until the limd moment did *he idryvau-o find winniiu upport. The first 33 stpte were unanimously wet, alt migli the eh lions were hot- ■ ly contested. Then, with six lutes votiii"- in i Me day. North and South Carolina remained loyal to the drys Flven with • the approval of 36 states, repeal cannot become an ac tuality for almost a month. Should Kentucky approve repeal, the effee tivei date will he Dec. 5. If it disvappr ives, it " ill he Dec. 6. The repeal c|r tinns have b*>en to I select delegate- I eonveuti’a which technically accomplish lalil'c ation. If Kentucky i wet, it will le Id the 33rd convention Nov. 27.
